For single person households or others where you can't or don't run the dishwasher everyday, put a scoop of oxygen enzyme powder in addition to dishwashing powder in the prewash cycle and it will do a good job on dishes that may not be going to wash up properly. Running this also keeps dishwasher smelling fine.

Don't discard your old bits of scented wax from old candles. Use a cheese grater to shave the bits into managable bits. Place them in a net material. Leave them in your linen closet, drawers and closets to keep them smelling fresh.
To keep the fridge smelling fresh, try soaking a few cotton balls in vanilla extract and placing in a dish. Keep it in the fridge, and change every few weeks.
A warm microwave is so much easier to clean than a cold one. Place a cup of water in the centre with a half of lemon immersed in the water and boil using the microwave. Wipe the microwave immediately and it leaves it smelling lovely and lemony fresh.
